A list from the World Economic Forum, which touted the top 14 things 'successful people' do before breakfast, has sparked mockery on Twitter.
The organisation shared what they surely thought an inspiring list - 'drink water', 'meditate', and 'work on a top-priority business project' - but were met by Twitter users parodying their tone.
Posted by the forum's @Davos account, which uses Twitter to promote social and economic progress, the tweet references a book by time-management expert Laura Vanderkam.
But the reactions were mocking with tweets such as, "Success sounds awful" and "That... list reads like something your unemployed Facebook friend would post at 3pm EST".
One user wrote: "They die early of a massive heart attack", another added: "they die of starvation". Another replied to @Davos with: "That's a busy month for me".
A more supportive follower retweeted the list stating: "This is not a parody".
But the majority weren't convinced, with a user claiming they had estimated it would take 216 minutes to complete the tasks.
Another queried why "successful people" make their beds, but not their breakfast.
While a slight tweaking of the title was offered by another:
The account did not respond to the barrage of comments and continued to post links to research about male and female work ethics and juggling studies and a job.
